Farooq Sattar to contest from three Karachi constituenciesKARACHI: Veteran MQM leader Farooq Sattar has announced he will be contesting the upcoming election from three constituencies.I am filing my nomination papers from NA-241, NA-245 and NA-247, Sattar told media persons.Sattar stated that MQM-P was not being given political space needed to take part in the electoral process.Around 165 workers are still missing, he said, adding that the party sealed offices be re-opened.
The practice of cornering us needs to end now.Criticising the recently sworn-in interim set-up for Sindh, Sattar alleged that most cabinet members were supporters of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).The use of development funds and injustice in delimitation of constituencies is pre-electoral rigging, he further alleged.
